2.1 understand the terms group and period
2.2 recall the positions of metals and non-metals in the Periodic Table
2.3 explain the classification of elements as metals or non-metals on the basis of their electrical conductivity and the acid-base character of their oxides
2.4 understand why elements in the same group of the Periodic Table have similar chemical properties
2.5 understand that the noble gases (Group 0) as a family of inert gases and explain their lack of reactivity in terms of their electronic configurations
